dont let others bring you down!

Okay, i am 14 years old and my name is aubree. I'm in 8th grade right now and I was bullied sense 6th until I put a stop to it this year. Basically it started because I was really short and my teeth weren't perfectly straight. People would make fun of me and call me names. I was actually really depressed and I was only in 6th grade. I was cyberbullyed, and verbally bullied. But I was younger so I didn't let it get to me. In the beginning of 7th I was nervous to go to school due to not having braces yet and still being short. And then people were even meaner. I was pushed to the ground, punched, still verbally bullied, cyber bullied and then physical bullied. and later on I was diagnosed with depression. Two male kids that bullied me for a long time decided to hold me down, one kid held me back and the other squirteddating lot of hand sanitizer down my throat and I was rushed to the hospital and sick for a while. When I returned to school many more people started bullying me everyday saying I wasn't at school for attention and that I lied. They would say it everyday, when I walked into classrooms they would laugh, some would push me to the ground, and others would always tell me to kill myself or I didn't deserve to live. I was getting very depressed through the year. I obviously had the principal notified about it and some kids were suspended and cops were involved with some people. But I couldn't handle all of the bullying I couldn't stand it anymore. At the end of that by ear I started self harming. At the time I only had a few friends. One of them found out I did it and told the whole school. I never wore short sleeves agai, and to this day I still don't because of my scars. I had cuts going from my wrists To my shoulders and knees to hips. Every cut was for every word, every time someone told me to cut or kill myself or just bullied me in general I cried at night and cut. I had attempted suicide because it kept getting worse. Then i was put in west wood lodge mental hospital for 2 weeks. I told them I was fine everyday and I got out sooner than expected. But I wasn't fine, I just wanted to leave. now I'm in eight grade and I finally chose to use my voice and speak up to them, i stood up for others being bullied as well as myself. I made a difference in others life's.
So I learned no matter what anyone says. Don't let then bring you dow. Keep your head up and block out the haters.
